Abstract
The “health prayer” for Imam of the Time (A.S) is a brief and useful prayer 
that strengthens the spiritual connection with the Imam of the Time. Some of 
the so-called intellectuals have attempted to call it invalid by defecting the 
documentation of the prayer. According to the credible sources that have 
quoted this prayer, one can move towards accepting part of the prayer. This 
article examines the process the prayer content has gone through in the sources 
by examining the sources of the “health prayer” and their transmission quality. 
Below each source of the prayer document is reviewed and the characteristics 
of that source are mentioned. Reasoning how to suspend the prayer document 
and review all sources is an advantage this paper has and distinguishes it from 
other similar works.
